I started off working when I was 16 in a local pub in my hometown of Clondalkin<\/p>\n
Since the pub was located in our village, everyone knew everyone and it was usually the same craic every week -weekdays would be quiet, then come the weekend all the mad buachaill\u00ed agus cail\u00edn\u00ed would come out to play. I remember before I arrived in Vegas I had a phone call with Scott where I asked him if the weekdays were quiet at R\u00ed R\u00e1, Scott laughed and replied \u2018Oh no chica, everyday is the weekend in Vegas\u2019.<\/p>\n
I had no idea what I was in for. The nerves really kicked in once I got off the plane and caught my first glance of the famous Las Vegas strip. I was so in awe of everything, it really is like Disney Land for adults. The nerves quickly eased off though once I took my first steps inside R\u00ed R\u00e1. I felt so at home, the decor, the music, the atmosphere, and of course once I started hearing the different Irish accents from both staff and customers, I knew I was in a good place.<\/p>\n
The thing I love most about working at R\u00ed R\u00e1 is the opportunity i have to meet people from all over the world. It feels surreal going from a small local Irish pub in Ireland talking to mostly regulars, to now being in Vegas where you don\u2019t know who is going to walk through the door.<\/p>\n
Vegas is definitely a world of its own but it\u2019s a world that I\u2019m absolutely loving so far. I\u2019m so excited for what this year has in store for me, everyday is so different from the next and I can\u2019t wait for what\u2019s to come!<\/p>\n
